EN： Tag questions (e.g., 'don't we?') are used to confirm information or seek agreement. When the main clause is positive ('We make...'), the tag question is negative ('don't we?'). The auxiliary verb 'do' is used because 'make' is a main verb in the simple present tense.
中文： 附加问句（例如 'don't we?'）用于确认信息或寻求对方同意。当主句为肯定句（'We make...'）时，附加问句使用否定形式（'don't we?'）。因为 'make' 是一般现在时的主动词，所以助动词使用 'do'。
